Re: looking for 1977 JGB Reuban & Cherises |
billyd ... let me get back to you on this in more detail, i gotta get some new tires on my bike right now ... but i would start with august '84, 8/11, 8/10, 8/13 (and most anything from this month for performance, keeping in mind that not every source has great sound, though for 8/11, get the reutelhuber, or the damico) ... also, i listened to 1/13 for the first time recently, and it's great, highly recommended

Re: looking for 1977 JGB Reuban & Cherises |
Outstanding. Lets see, that puts me roughly 158 disks down in our exchange rate...hmmm, about as bad as our dollar against the Euro I'd say. Suppose that makes you "European" to my "Ugly American."
There is some fine work on that album. Again, with what Jerry was up to from 1970 to 1975 via his solo efforts, not to mention the DEAD, it is simply astounding to me that he his not universally hailed as one of the GREATS in the music biz...well, of course all of us think so, but that was an amazing period of productivity for him...

11/21/77:[7'00][audience, vocals a tad buried in the instruments, average mix, but overall, a decent version]
11/23/77:[6'40][audience, upfront vocals, drums prominant, but good emotion coming from Jerry vocalwise]
11/27/77:[6'16][audience, a tad muddy soundwise, but vocally upfront]
11/30/77:[5'40][audience, decent sound, not bad, not great, a bit of echo/depth to Jerry's vocals, probably the hall/venue]
12/06/77:[6'30][audience, seems a bit lifeless soundwise, but definitely listenable]
12/08/77:[7'50][soundboard, not the greatest, some hiss, and i'd certainly take one of the aud sources before this, sound improves a bit later in song; track is spliced; nice solo]
12/09/77:[8'51][audience, good mix, nice vocals by Jerry, excellent sound, front-of-board, splendid guitar solo/jam]
12/10/77:[7'07][audience, front-of-board, crisp vocals (pretty sweet actually), very crisp guitar from Jerry, well-mixed, cool performance]
so, there's the run-down on what i have, and look, i know you're a soundboard sorta guy, but if i had to pick the best from above, i'd go with the 12/9 & 12/10 performances ... shoot me an e-mail, and i'll send you links; cheers
